Experience the SUV Pride with The ADV160

Often in life, the journey matters just as much as the destination. How you get there is where life’s many joys and lessons come from. This is one thing that Honda Philippines, Inc. (HPI), the No.1 motorcycle manufacturer in the country, truly understands. And this is what makes the ADV160 a ride that puts emphasis on the journey.

The ADV160 comes with more refined and improved features, enhanced technology, and a unique image. Carrying the lifestyle-driven concept “The SUV Pride,” this upgraded evolution is built for riders who move seamlessly between daily commuting and leisure, delivering confidence, control, and distinction in every journey.

To mark its grand arrival, HPI hosted a dynamic launch event on January 19, attended by the media and content creators. The event kicked off with the unveiling of the model’s latest performance capabilities, signaling a new era for the unique automatic category in the Philippines.

Unmatched control and confidence on any road
As an adventure-style automatic scooter, The ADV160 is meticulously designed for those who seek excitement and a unique new colors. This model makes riding effortless with its Automatic transmission, allowing you to focus on the thrill of the ride without manual shifting or clutch operation.

Confidence is reinforced through advanced safety technologies. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with wavy disc brakes helps maintain stability during sudden braking, while Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) supports traction on varying road conditions. Visibility and rider awareness are further enhanced by the All LED Lighting System, Emergency Stop Signal, and Hazard Lamp, helping ensure you are clearly seen and prepared for unexpected situations on the road. These features ensures safety whether navigating busy city streets or exploring new paths during weekend escapes.

A bold fusion of rugged design and high-performance power The latest design styling captures the spirit of an explorer, featuring a rugged yet premium aesthetic. With a 780 mm seat height and 165 mm ground clearance, it provides a commanding view of the road and the ability to clear obstacles with ease.

Beneath its premium exterior lies a high-performance 157cc, 4-valve, liquid-cooled, eSP+ engine. This powerhouse delivers a maximum power of 11.8 kW @ 8,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 14.7 Nm @ 6,500 rpm, providing the punchy acceleration needed to stay ahead of traffic. Despite its robust output, it remains remarkably efficient with a fuel consumption of 45.0 km/L (WMTC). Combined with an 8.1 L fuel tank, this efficiency allows riders to explore more, making it a reliable partner for long-distance touring and daily use alike. Ride comfort is also elevated through the Adjustable Windscreen, which helps reduce wind fatigue, and the Subtank Rear Suspension, designed to absorb road imperfections and provide a smoother ride across longer journeys.

Redefining convenience with smart technology and the smart top box
Everyday riding becomes more intuitive with the ADV160’s new 5-inch TFT meter panel, offering clear and modern visual access to essential riding information. Exclusive to the RoadSync type, Honda RoadSync brings smartphone connectivity to the ride—allowing access to navigation, calls, and notifications—while the new multi-function switch and passing light switch keep controls easily within reach.

Daily convenience is further supported by thoughtful features such as the New USB Type-C Charger for on-the-go device charging, the Idling Stop System for improved efficiency during traffic stops, and the Honda Smart Key System for keyless operation. Storage needs are well covered with a spacious 30L luggage box, ideal for daily essentials and leisure gear, while compatibility with a Smart Top Box, which can be operated by the Smart Key System, adds secure, weather-protected storage for longer rides and adventures.

Today, we mark another important event, as we officially launch the latest version of ADV160, a model that has become a symbol of strength, confidence, and adventure on the road. Known for its bold design and commanding presence, the ADV160 embodies what we proudly call “The SUV Pride.” Says Mr. Takeshi Kobayashi, President of Honda Philippines, Inc.
